As for this printer's PPD, it requires ICC profiles for the supported color 
spaces to be applied (main keyword *cupsICCProfile: ..." in the PPD). 
Currently, these keywords are supported only on Mac OS X.

For Linux, you could set up a special filter (main keywprd *cupsFilter:) 
that converts the listed ICC proviles to a PostScript CRD (e.g. using 
littlecms for the conversion) and integrating it into the PostScript job (of 
type application/vmd.cups-postscript).

For further details (possibly hacking a prototype) you may contact me 
directly.
